Initial series and boosters of these immunizations are offered for both childi^en and adults. The Immunization Action Program currently underway throughout XY^e country is an attempt to make people aware that vaccines are available which have proven very efr fective in preventing diseases such as polio, 'measles, , rubella, mumps, diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough). Dr. Craig McMillan, county health officer, points out that, contrary to what many people believe, these diseases have never been completely eliminated. As people have become more lax about having tlieir children immunized, the danger ot epidemics has increased, he said. Complications as a result of these so-called childhood diseases are very serious, and no child should go unprotected. Vaccines are available through, physicians and medical centers located throughout the county, and also at health department clinics regularly scheduled throughout the county. Further information or a copy of the complete health department clinic schedule can be obtained by phoning 468-4461. FAMILIAR FACES ?

Advertisement TAX FACTS BY CHARLES l^gSHTENByRGER CHARLES TAX SERVICE SHOULDYOU tAKE A REFUND •f If you were to apply your 1977 refund to your 1978 taxes, and then later on you are audited and find you oiwe additional taxes for 1977, under the Rul. 77-339 the IRS will require you to pay the additional amount plus interest. You cannot use the amount you requested IRS to apply to your 1978 taxes. So make sure you do not loan the government your money, interest free, take that refund! Put your money in your savings account. Is it just good business. Here is another good business practice. You can make your retirement plan contribution as late as February 14, 1978 this year. If you do not have the cash, what about iior- rowing the money from the bank.. Enough for 1977 and 1978, and make your contribution early this year and let it earn tax free income all year long. Be sure your early contributions do not exceed your maximum allowable amount for the year. Excessive contribution draws a 6% penalty. See your friendly banker about this. , Switching Depreciation If you were to switch to Straight Line in the 7th year of a 10 year useful life span, or the 12th year of a 20 year useful life span, the results will be a'larger deduction for you. When you need to offset an expiring operation loss carry over, a switch to Straight Line will produce additional taxable income that can be used. In a low profit year switch to Straight Line and defer the larger deduction to future years of higher profits. See your tax accountant for this one. Income Averaging Total your income for the last four years and if your income for 1977 exceeds your 4 year average by 120%, you may be able to save some tax dollars, but again see an astute tax man.
